![](https://freshtart.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/ce4f22de01827aae_DSC_0031.preview.jpg)
I posted this recipe a few weeks ago at Dara & Co./Minnesota Monthly Magazine. It’s hard to say much more about Sweet Potato Fries than: They are easy. They are delicious. I spotted sweet potatoes at the farmers market the other day and immediately imagined sweet potato “fries,” roasted in the oven until tender and…
San Francisco Part II: The Food, and Crispy Fried Tofu
Gorgeous, hip, fun, smart, and famously delicious – San Francisco is my dream town. I regret that I was so busy with the BlogHer Food blogging conference I attended that I didn’t get to do much sightseeing. But I did enjoy several fantastic, not-Minnesota meals, and of course incredible California wine. Here’s the overview in…
Fish Soup with Tomatoes
Where do you buy fish? A tricky thing, in Minnesota, at least to find consistently fresh choices – I’ve bought nice fillets and some real stinkers from every major outlet in the Twin Cities. If you’re willing to shop online, I can say that I’ve been extremely pleased with the sustainably caught king salmon and…
Fried Egg Tostada with Sausage, Spinach & Tomatoes

What’s this? Why, it’s the best (insert your favorite curse word) breakfast you’ve had, like, ever. You’ll see the list of ingredients, and you might freak out a little bit, thinking that it’s awfully rich for breakfast. But bear with me, as I’m a big fan of small jolts of dear ingredients, the best possible…
Coconut Pancakes with Strawberries

Here’s a…thing. Due to health problems I’d been experiencing for the last couple of years (puffy eyes/hands, fatigue, joint pain), and given that I’m otherwise totally healthy (blood pressure and cholesterol-wise), I started experimenting with eliminating various foods from my diet. I started with nuts, then eggs, then dairy. I felt exactly the same. And…
Homemade Applesauce (Paleo, AIP, Vegan)
![](https://freshtart.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/9ab32cc30cd73103_DSC_0010.preview.jpg)
I hated applesauce as a kid. (I realize how many blog posts I begin by mentioning a food I hated as a kid. I do it to reassure you, and myself, that picky children often become enthusiastic cooks and eaters. So hang in there if you’re feeding the seemingly impossible.) I hated its grainy, watery…
Fresh Tomato Sauce to Eat on Everything
I posted this recipe a few weeks ago at Dara & Co./Minnesota Monthly. It’s no longer hot & humid in Minnesota – in fact, we turned on the heat this morning, brrr! – but there are still piles of fat, ripe tomatoes around, just perfect for making this addictive sauce. Thanks to my seasonal pessimism,…
Roasted Cauliflower with Pancetta & Garlic (Paleo, AIP)
![](https://freshtart.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/0b2a56f5f0c79d46_DSC_0010.preview.jpg)
It is so dark today (in Minnesota), I’m lucky I was able to take a recognizable photo. Flash flood warnings abound, as apparently we’re about to be deluged with days of cold, fall rain. Good times. To cheer myself up, I just add pork, to just about anything, and really, I feel better. I made…
Leftovers for Lunch: Chickpea Flour Pancake
I’ll just cut to the chase – there is no better way to eat leftovers than atop a chickpea flour pancake. The pancake itself is so flavorful, it could breathe new life into almost any topping. It also takes 3 minutes to make – chickpea flour, stirred with some water, fried in a tiny bit…
Crispy Club Sandwiches with Avocado
Tomato season is slowly winding down – enjoy this sandwich soon! You probably don’t need a recipe to make a club sandwich – toast, tomato, lettuce, turkey, bacon, mayo, done. And yet… Perhaps you haven’t made a club sandwich on a grilled bun, smeared with creamy avocado instead of mayo, and let me say that…
